What reading level is Living to Tell the Tale book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
“The man who travels in a truck doesn’t know where he’s going to die,” I recalled, along with the memory of my grandfather. The passengers, stupefied by six hours of naked sun and the stink of the salt marshes, did not wait for the ladder to be lowered in order to disembark but hurried to throw over the side the crates of chickens, bundles of plantains, and all kinds of things for selling or for killing that they had used as seats on the roof of the truck. The driver jumped down from the cab and... announced in a caustic shout: “La Heroica!”
It is the emblematic name by which Cartagena de Indias is known because of its past glories, and that is where it should have been. But I did not see it because I almost could not breathe inside the black wool suit I had been wearing since April 9. The other two in my wardrobe had met the same fate as the typewriter in the pawnshop, but the honorable version for my parents was that the typewriter and other personal trifles had disappeared along with my clothes in the confusion of the fire.
